I think a lot of Whitest Kid's U Know stuff genuinely transcends the topics its mocking by how good it is.

For example: WKUK - Kennedy Assasination

That song at 3:41 swims into my head from time to time, when I'm feeling stressed or overworked or uncertain about the future:

Somewhere out in space there is a place,
Where I can do what I want to,
And all at my own pace.

Somewhere out of time I hope I'll find,
A place where I can just unwind,
And work on my own mind.

Oh send me a signal, oh give me a prayer,
I just need to know that there's some spot out there,
Where I could be me and you could be you...

Just a pure sentiment longing for free time, personal agency, co-existence, brotherhood, and harmony -- which I think are topics everyone can click with.

I've spent the last couple of hours re-watching WKUK skits because of you.

Man those guys are funny.

Great actors too, Trevor himself had just such a way with expression delivering lines both wacky and straight
